Singer/Band:
Janis Joplin
[Verse]
[G]Busted flat in B[G]aton Rouge,[G] waitin' for a tr[G]ain
When I's [G]feelin' near as [G]faded as [D7]my jeans [D7]
[D7]Bobby thumbed a d[D7]iesel down[D7] just before it r[D7]ained
And r[D7]ode us all the w[D7]ay into New Or[G]le[-]an[C/G]s [G]
I [G]pulled my [G]harpoon out of my [G]dirty red [G]bandana
I's [G]playin' soft while [G7]Bobby sang the [C]blues [C]
[C]Windshield wipers [C]slappin' time, I [G]was holdin' Bobby's [G]hand in
mine
[D7]We sang every [D7]song that driver [D7]knew [D7]
[Chorus]
[C]Freedom's just an[C]other word for[G] nothin' left to l[G]ose
[D7]Nothin', it ain't [D7]nothin' honey, if it ain't [G]free [G]
And [C]feelin' good was [C]easy, lord, [G]oh, when he sang the [G]blues
You know [D7]feelin' good was [D7]good enough for [D7]me [D7]
[D7]Good enough for [D7]me and my Bobby [G]McGee [G] [A] [A]
[Verse]
From the [A]Kentucky [A]coal mines to the [A]California [A]sun
Yeah [A]Bobby shared the [A]secrets of [E7]my soul [E7]
Through [E7]all kinds of [E7]weather, through [E7]everything we [E7]done
Yeah [E7]Bobby baby [E7]kept me from the [A]cold [A]
One [A]day up near Sal[A]inas, lo-ord,[A] I let him slip aw[A]ay
He's [A]lookin' for that [A7]home and I hope he [D]finds it [D]
Well I'd [D]trade all my [D]tomorrows for one [A]single [A]yesterday
To be [E7]holdin' Bobby's [E7]body next to [E7]mine [E7]
[Chorus]
[D]Freedom's just an[D]other word for[A] nothin' left to l[A]ose
[E7]Nothin', and that's [E7]all that Bobby [A]left me [A]
Well, [D]feelin' good was [D]easy, [A]lo-o-ord, when he sang the [A]blues
And [E7]feelin' good was [E7]good enough for [E7]me [E7]
[E7]Good enough for [E7]me and my Bobby [A]McGee yeah [A]
